Indigenous Awards

Helping Indigenous* Students Succeed

The Society offers three Award programs for students pursuing post-secondary education in BC. They are available to students who identify as Indigenous, defined as First Nations (status or Non-Status), Métis or Inuit. All are renewable in order to provide sustained funding over multiple years.

*In September of 2018, the Society discontinued the use of the term “Aboriginal”, and adopted the more generally accepted term of “Indigenous” for its First Nations, Metis and Inuit focused programs.
